Jonny:You don;t think so? I think it would change our choices ito realize
how
contingent and co-related all our choices are. We'd put more care into
them, and we'd also have a different attitude toward the choices of others.
People today think they don't affect other people because everyone has free
will, but they are wrong, what we do affects other people, we alter their
wills.
DM: Contingent implies chaos, freedom and morality is about having a range
of possibilities, this range is limited but open, the range also depends on
your
imagination and knowledge, opening up new possibilities, morality, as
Nietzsche
bangs on about with his hammer, is mainly about making us social rather than
wild animals. What next? Modern society makes a whole new kind of individual
possible. What are her laws and morals to be? Does anything save existence
from just being absurd? For me I think of the cosmos as an achievement and
suggest we ask what we can achieve.
